_ _ _ Aubrey is in the key of G and it uses one of David Gates's favourite songwriting tricks,
the descending chord sequence where the [N] bass _ descends through [Eb] the chord changes.
First of all we want to start on a G chord, bar one of the tab of course.
It's [F] the intro, the top four [G] bars, here we go.
_ _ _ [B] _ _ [Bm] _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] It starts with a G chord that's done like this.
You know the [F] F chord, normal F chord in the first position, bring it up two [Ab] frets and
you've got another way of playing G.
And we're going to pick, as we often do regularly through this [Eb] song, fourth string, third, first
and [G] second together, and third. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now [E] we've got one of the trickier chord changes in the song, B minor 7 over F sharp.
We want to make an [Eb] A minor shape, bring it up two frets.
That's not too bad but [G] then he adds the little finger at the first string fifth fret.
But you do [Ebm] have a movement to put that finger down, don't feel like you have to do that immediately.
You're going to pick again, four, [B] three, two and one, that's where you need [A] that finger
down, and three. _ _ _
[G] One and two and [Gb] three and [Bm] four and.
_ _ Now E minor but you [Eb] only need one finger on the fourth string second fret, again the same pick pattern.
[Em] _
_ _ _ _ [G] Now take the fingers away [B] and play four, [Eb] three and you have that [Ab] time to move the middle
finger to the first string second fret.
[B] _ _
So it's the same pick [Em] pattern.
_ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] Now we want a C chord.
I swing this finger now to the fifth string third [C] fret and then in time I'll add the second
string first fret.
I don't worry usually about the fourth string because I'm not going to play it.
Five, three, two and one, three.
_ Keep the [D] index finger where it is and have the middle finger take the fifth string second
fret, play the same [B] pick pattern.
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [Cm] A minor 7 just requires you to take the middle finger [Abm] away and leave the index finger where
it [Ebm] is, same pick pattern.
[Am] _ _ _ _ And then [G] C over D keeps the same chord [Ab] shape but plays [E] four, three, [C] two and one, three.
_ _ That's your [B] intro, let's play it again [G] slowly. _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ [Gbm] _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
